She is 26 years old.

Look at the photo on the right.

How old is she in the photo on the right?

She is only 27 years old!

What a change!

Of course, it is because of drugs.


Look at her in this photo!


 In this photo, she is 28 years old.

In only two years, she changed so much!


Who took these photos?

If I looked like her I would not want to take a photo of myself!


Bret King is a police officer.

He works in Oregon, USA.

Many people are arrested because of drugs.

When they come to the police station they are photographed.

Some people are arrested again and again for drugs.

Bert King sees the same people again and again and takes their photos.

He collected their photos and shows them to High School students.

He wants to show High School students what happens if you take drugs.

Someone in Australia made his Gangnam Style Christmas lights!





This light display took 200 hours to set up.

 But there was one big problem.

 It was too good!

Too many people came to see the light show.

The crowds were too big.

 It was dangerous.

The show was stopped after only three days!

 If you want to know more about this light show look at the facebook page.

Socks!

Why do people wear socks?

In cold weather, we wear socks to keep our feet warm.

In warm weather, we wear socks to absorb sweat from our feet.

The first socks were made of animal skins.

In 1000 AD socks were worn only by rich people.

These socks were made in 300-500AD in Egypt.


In 1589 the Knitting machine was invented.

This meant that socks could be made quickly and cheaply.

Now, everyone could wear socks!

Presents!

I love to get presents!

My birthday is November 13th.

I got a very nice birthday present from my wife!

It is a tablet computer.




I can do many things with this computer!


I can play games!

I like this crane game.


I also like to play pinball!

 I can also watch videos!

I can learn many things from some videos.

In this video, a monk explains how we can be happy.

I want to become wise like him!


Can I become wise by using technology?

I don`t know.
